Set against the streets of New York City in the 1950s, "Guys and
Dolls" is a story of gamblers, cops and missionaries. The
award-winning musical features such memorable characters as Sky
Masterson, Sarah Brown, Nathan Detroit and Ms. Adelaide, and songs
"Luck Be A Lady," "Bushel and a Peck," "Sue Me" and "Sit Down,
You're Rockin' the Boat."

"Guys and Dolls" was written by Jo Swerling and Abe Burrows, with
lyrics and music by Frank Loesser, and is based on two short stories
by Damon Runyon. Produced on Broadway in 1950, it won the Tony Award

Marlon Brando, Jean Simmons, Frank Sinatra and Vivian Blaine.
